Thanks for the card @VSNSpaceCoast
In advance of the most talked about game in the Space Coast this season (live streaming on VSN) we're dropping our latest VSN Space Coast trading cards today one for Eau Gallie, and this one Zaylan Chapple for @MerrittIslandFB
@z_chapple has been an instant difference maker for ping them to a 6-0 start, he has put up 567 rushing yards, 9.5 yards/carry, and 6 TDs to go along with 14 receptions for 197 yards and 2 TDs.
Both of his parents went to Merritt Island, and he used to play 7x7 for Mustangs coach Tyler Murray who said, ""He's a hard-worker blue-collar kid that loves the weight room, loves his teammates, and loves the game of football."
Link to Friday's Merritt Island at Eau Gallie game can be found at our homepage: vsn-spacecoast.com
